Sonny Bill Williams has been named in the All Blacks Sevens squad for the next two legs of the Sevens World Series in Hong Kong and Singapore.
Pita Ahki also returns to the side after last playing for New Zealand at the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow in 2014. He was also a member of the 2013 World Cup sevens winning side.
Coach Gordon Tietjens said it was a tough selection after yesterday's trial.
"The key this year is getting the balance right so we give all the players the opportunity in a really important year to stake their claim to be in contention for the Olympics by playing in a World Series tournament. We want to go to Hong Kong and perform really well."
Wider training group player Sione Molia wins selection after impressing in Vancouver while Ahki returns to the side from the Hurricanes.
